This is my song ❤ I sang it to each of my daughters when they were born. Now that they’re adults 32 & 20; they both sing this song with such a mellow tone I tear up but this song lives on forever❤.
Take 6 's version of this song was off the hook ...mindblowing ...!!!!!...I love the electric piano sound ...im still looking for those chords since im a piano player myself .. Today is 2023 and im still in love with that song
This was the first Take 6 song I ever heard on my neighbour's sound system in St.Mary, Jamaica when I was growing up in the 1990's. I wondered which group produced that harmony and who was singing the lead. Eventually I found out it was Take 6 and when I discovered that the lead was Brian Mcknight's brother I was hooked. The lead in this song is a masterpiece. Well done. Back then, I was teaching myself to play the keyboard listening to Brian's first album. Since then its been an interesting musical journey. Thanks to you all....
Thanks for taking time to break this down. All these years never knew the story behind it. I actually sang it with a group years ago and it's deceptively complex. ✌🏿
Awwww... showing some teeth worked!!! 🤓 That's how it is when you are an artist of any type...you don't rest until it's right. But then once you've got it, you've got it!
You know what's crazy Claude?.I never thought to consciously show my teeth more, or being cognizant of my teeth, while singing in the higher registers, until I watched this..WOW. you just improved my voice in 4 minutes, eventhough (no pun intended) I've been singing 38 years!
Thanks for doing this series. Really enjoy the back story and insights into the classics. It's awesome when you give us a little sample of what a different approach on the vocal would have sounded like. I can't imagine the Michael McDonald take on that song, would have completely changed a classic.
I love that rendition of the song , I will say it’s equal if not better than the original. I love that your critical of yourself and this pushes you to do exhale even more
Good story! Love the series! As much as you definitely sound like Michael McDonald I always thought you had a bit more of that James Ingram kind of sound, especially like in the high "howl" sort of falsetto you two sound identical lol!

Hi Handsome. Good to see you.
you are such an inspiration as you share your authenticity

Thank you sir for sharing. You have no idea how much I’m learning from you. God bless you and the members. 🙏
You’re welcome 😊

I called that about your voice, YEARS AGO! the Michael McDonald connection.
One of my faves...nice to hear about the human process!
Crazy getting back into the headspace and remembering!!!
Thanks for sharing this with us Claude

You all did a perfect job and I still am very much in love with this song that I first heard it in 1994!
oh my gosh great job doing Michael Mcdonald!
yes sir!
I love your version of that song. It’s on my morning playlist still to this day.

I know y'all made David Pack proud
The arraignment that you do of this song is my father's favorite song of yours and your groups!
Why is this album not on Apple Music I’ve been looking for it lol

I add "more than a conqueror" when I sing the lead on Take 6's 'Biggest Part of Me". It's one of my favorites.
